| Description: |
I am the mother of 9 children, 6 are part of a large sibling group we adopted through foster care, 1 is our first foster daughter, 1 is from an independent infant adoption, and 1 is ours through Legal Guardianship. Every one of them has their own issues to work through from Generalized Anxiety Disorder, Complex PTSD, Reactive Attachment Disorder, Sensory Integration Dysfunction, and Cerebral Palsy. If that wasn't enough, we let our oldest and her 3 kids move back in. They brought their own issues we have been trying to help them overcome. Rosa-28, Cyr-13, Patches-11, Ruthie-10, Michael-9, Emma-7, Ava-7, Ella-7, and Kiera-1. Grandchildren include Alyssa-7, Eddie-6, and Gigi-3. |
